Hi Burr,

Yes, but that's one reason why what you are showing is pretty different from "box modeling"...

You're showing something I'd describe more like "freeform tube drawing" - box modeling is a different technique than what you've shown in either of those videos.

If you would like to work in that way you might want to use a polygon modeler for doing that, they've got a bunch of tools in them that are more specifically oriented around that stuff.

The other part that goes along with that is sub-d smoothing which is a part of box modeling, the box modeling creates the sort of outer hull and then sub-d smoothing is applied to it to make a kind of smooth melted down shape out of it.
